FAQs

How do I clean the R&G 2-Grip Tank Pads?

Clean the grips using a soft cloth with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry or dry with a clean, soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

What is the main benefit of using these tank grips?

The main benefit is improved rider control and stability by providing a secure grip for your legs, which helps you stay planted during cornering and braking.

Are these grips difficult to install?

Installation requires care and patience to ensure proper adhesion and avoid air bubbles. Ensure the tank is clean and follow the application instructions closely.

How long do the tank grips typically last?

Made from durable materials, they are designed for long-lasting performance. Lifespan depends on riding conditions, maintenance, and exposure to elements, but they are built to withstand significant wear.

Can I remove the tank grips if I want to sell the bike?

Yes, they can typically be removed. The adhesive is strong but designed for removal. Gently heating the grip with a hairdryer can soften the adhesive, making removal easier. There may be some residue left behind which can be cleaned with appropriate automotive adhesive removers.

Will these grips damage my motorcycle's paint?

When applied and removed correctly, they should not damage the paint. The adhesive is designed to be strong but also removable. However, always ensure the paint surface is in good condition prior to application.

Troubleshooting

Grips are not sticking properly

Ensure the tank surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Re-apply pressure to the affected area, or consider using a mild adhesive promoter designed for automotive use.

Air bubbles under the grip

If minor, try to gently push the bubble towards the edge. For larger bubbles, carefully lift the edge of the grip (if the adhesive hasn't fully cured) and re-apply, smoothing as you go. A heat gun on a low setting can sometimes help reshape the material for a smoother finish.

Grip texture feels too aggressive

This is subjective and depends on rider preference and gear. Some riders find wearing thicker riding pants reduces initial discomfort. The texture is designed for maximum grip and may require a short break-in period.

Difficulty in precise placement

Practice dry fitting the grip before removing the backing. Use masking tape to mark reference points on the tank. Work slowly and deliberately, applying the grip in small sections.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly improves grip and control during cornering and braking.
  • Helps reduce rider fatigue by providing a stable contact point.
  • Durable materials ensure long-lasting performance.
  • Enhances rider confidence on road and track.
  • Designed for easy application and a secure fit.

Cons

  • Requires careful application to avoid bubbles or misalignment.
  • May alter the aesthetic of the motorcycle tank.
  • Grip texture might feel aggressive to some riders initially.
  • Not universally compatible with all motorcycle models without potential modifications (though designed for specific bikes).
  • May require specific cleaning agents to maintain optimal grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the motorcycle's tank surface is clean, dry, and free from grease or polish before application. Carefully peel off the backing and apply the grips section by section, smoothing out any air bubbles as you go. Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to fully cure before riding.

Compatibility: This specific model (EZRG301BL) is designed as a general fitment, but R&G offers specific variants for certain motorcycle models (e.g., Triumph Street Triple 675, Triumph Sprint ST). Always check the product title and part number for compatibility with your motorcycle.

Care: Clean the tank grips regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washers directly on the grips, as this can degrade the adhesive and material over time. Ensure the grips are completely dry after cleaning.
